    This hammy tightness was the best thing for Harden. It forced him to sit to get some rest and the Nets were forced to stop riding him like a mule

    Lakers have more History but Brooklyn can be just as large of a market.
    Bron's Cleveland team was no slouch either. Everyone was getting paid. The towel boy probably made more than what I make. I think that's what attracted people to play in Cleveland and join up with Bron. Not only did they have a chance at a title but when he promised people they would get paid they did. We pissed off Tucker Ariza and so forth.

    Incidentally, the only NBA arena I have been to, to watch a live game has been the Nets one.....

    ....to watch the Rockets.

    Nets crowd is used to rooting for the visiting team.

    I’ve been a Nets fan since the late 80s when Sam Bowie and Mookie Blaylock were on the team.

    If Katy had an NBA team that was stacked with all stars
    I’ll still root for Houston

    I still consider TLC and Shamet as young guys who have not been on long playoff runs and why is 24 not considered young?

    Why did you leave out the defense that I said he was point blank better at.

    I see you are that guy,who will post things out of context to score points on the internet.

    Whatever gets you through the day my guy.

    Every Loss with out Harden makes his case stronger

    I am amazed today when I hear that Lillard is #2 on the MVP list from Steven A.
    TrailBlazers will be in the top 5 in the west?

    Ya but if Katy is anything like I remember it to be I doubt any basketball player would be jumping at a chance to play there to create a Super team. Brooklyn is now hipper than Manhattan. I also don't think anyone would roll up to the stadium in a tractor.

    He was -4 because he was in with the absolute end of the bench lol. I never even heard of this Chris Chiozza before.

    Ask anyone who tells you they live in Houston
    Then you find out they live in Sugarland, Katy or Pearland
